  2. Pook-Emu Bee: Links For 04-15-26

    We have a second consecutive warm day in New York City. We also have a third consecutive day of Pook-Emu Bee links. 1. Seven Myths About the Iran War (Michael Doran for Tablet Magazine. April 13, 2026.) Good start. Hard to choose just seven. 2. Someone Bought 30 WordPress Plugins and Planted a Backdoor in All of Them. (Austin Ginder for Anchor. April 9, 2026.) WordPress should send notifications to webmasters whenever an installed plugin from the standard WordPress repository changes […]

  3. Le "Data Science Community Gathering" des #CFF a eu lieu il y a deux semaines. Plus de 100 participantes et participants ont échangé sur des projets dans le domaine de la science des données et noué de nouvelles connexions ✨

    #SIMBA #MOBi a présenté un poster:
    📈🏙️ Impact des nouvelles projections démographiques de l’Office fédéral de la statistique sur la demande de mobilité à long terme

  4. This year’s #SBB Data Science Community Gathering took place 2 weeks ago. More than 100 participants exchanged ideas about projects in Data Science and Analytics, made new connections, and left inspired. ✨

    #SIMBA #MOBi presented at the internal poster session:
    📈🏙️ How the new population projections from the Federal Statistical Office affect long‑term transport demand

    We are looking forward to the next gathering!

  5. Anne-Valérie Preto’s master’s project is highlighted on @epfl homepage today: actu.epfl.ch/news/modeling-tra

    "For her master’s project, Preto decided to work with the #SIMBA #MOBi forecasting model developed by the Swiss Federal Railway (#SBB)."

    "SBB was involved directly in her research and implemented the enhancements to SIMBA MOBi that Preto suggested."

    Enjoy the article!

  6. Le projet de master de Anne-Valérie Preto est mis en avant sur la page d'accueil de l'@epfl aujourd'hui: actu.epfl.ch/news/la-modelisat

    "Pour son projet de Master, elle découvre le modèle de prédiction des Chemins de fers fédéraux (#CFF), nommé «#SIMBA #MOBi»."

    "Les suggestions d’amélioration du modèle SIMBA MOBi qu’elle a développée ont directement été adoptées par les CFF, qui étaient parties prenantes de ce travail de fin d’études."

    Bonne lecture !

  7. #SIMBA #MOBi ist das multimodale Simulationsmodell der #SBB: Es prognostiziert Mobilität und Nachfrage auf allen Verkehrsmittel in der Schweiz, Tür zu Tür, inkl. intermodalem Bahnzugang 🚆🚉

    ❓ Aber wie kann MOBi genutzt werden?

  8. #SIMBA #MOBi est le modèle de transport multimodal des CFF. Il prédit la demande en transport voyageur pour tous les moyens de transport, de porte à porte, y compris les chaines de mobilité intermodales.

    Mais comment SIMBA MOBi peut-il être utilisé? Quelles sont les applications principales?

  9. How do you know if travellers prefer bus, tram or train for a given trip, everything else being equal?

    A difficult question. You cannot use a traditional stated preference survey.

    With Anne-Valérie Preto, we've differentiated public transport modes in our activity-based, agent-based demand model, #SIMBA #MOBi, using count data from Lausanne. The results have been validated using data from Lausanne & Zurich.

  10. Neue Zahlen von den #DVB: Die Abschaffung des #MOBI Angebots, also #Carsharing und #Mobibike, würde "gigantische" 300.000 € p.a. einsparen.

    Das wird die Verkehrsbetriebe sicher retten! Zumal die Verträge frühestens 2027 gekündigt werden können.

    "Dieser negative Wirkungsgrad ist bei keiner der untersuchten Maßnahmen höher."

  11. Pages 5 and 6 of "Orange", an original short story set in Appalachia. (from the PDF version, using Chrome's PDF viewer that doesn't know left from right.)

    If the whole idea of shillbilly Vance's egregious "Elegy" leaves a bad taste in your mouth, this could fix you right up. Also it's much, much shorter. And doesn't blame poor people for being poor.

  12. New short story available at the Ko-Fi shop!

    Skip the tedious cat-and-mouse stuff and jump right to the high-tension climax. This is the way you've always wanted the classic villain monologue to unfold!

  13. #Kindle radzi sobie z formatem #AZW3 znacznie lepiej niż z #mobi. Przypisy wyświetlane są małym fontem na dole ekranu, a nie gigantycznym (większym niż normalny tekst) w okienku. Miejmy nadzieję, że nie będzie się też tak często wieszał.

    #Calibre jest w błędzie, że domyślnie używa konwersji do mobi, dla tych urządzeń.

  14. #Kindle handles #AZW3 format better than #mobi. The footnotes are shown in small font at the bottom, rather in a huge font (larger than text) in an overlay window. Hopefully it won't hang as often as it did with mobi either.

    #Calibre is very wrong to default to converting everything to mobi for these devices.

  15. 👉 #Amazon Kindle (both an old one and a newer Paperwhite); wi-fi, USB and Whispersync interfaces: sigh. Where to start?

    No #EPUB, of course; only stupid #MOBI. I have to use #Calibre to convert stuff (doesn’t always works well), then I can send to the Kindle via its special e-mail address, or copy over USB. Also: #AZW3, supposed to be an improved format, better for Amazon devices… but not allowed as a format to be sent over e-mail; only USB in that case. Why??

    I want to classify my documents in directories, thank you. Copy, move, delete at will. But there’s just one gigantic Documents directory, and everything thrown in there.

    Notes and highlights: I can only share them (export, send by e-mail) for certain types of docs, but not others (format? DRM? bought on Amazon?).

    …not to mention the whole opaque and annoying #DRM thing and the “you are not buying books, just borrowing them temporarily from Amazon” thing. Switching from one #Kindle to another, trying to share a document with friends, registering or deregistering an owner… those are all miserable experiences.
